9' 4pc #5 Military Rod

Anyone getting tired of these? Hope not.


This one is on an American Tackle Black Matrix blank with an American Tackle UL5 skeleton. The seat and wood accents on the grip are Lignum Vitae. Green burl cork with flor grade cork and black accents finish the grip off. The winding check is one of the dimpled checks from Batson, I think. Black wraps with non-metallic gold tipping on the TiCH guides.


I changed things up a bit with this one and instead of the outline map I have used in the past, I used a graphic of a Huey coming in for a landing in a rice paddy as my background. I have removed the recipient's name in the pictures as I would not want to spoil any surprises.

This is the graphic I used, minus the name, before trimming and fitting to the rod.















Thanks for looking!
